New stops for London-bound coach service

Passengers can be picked up hourly from High Wycombe Coachway

A coach service connecting people to the capital has added new stops to its route.

The Oxford Tube started picking up passengers at High Wycombe Coachway, Oxfordshire, on its way to London Victoria for the first time earlier.

The service will make the stop every hour on weekdays.

Stagecoach West said it was looking forward to welcoming new faces on board.

Passengers boarding at the stop will then travel to Hillingdon and into London via Baker Street.

The service will also connect High Wycombe with Oxford Brookes University, Headington and Oxford city centre.

In addition, there will be four morning weekday departures from Carterton, Witney and Eynsham that will bypass Oxford city centre, stopping at Thornhill, then on to London.

Stagecoach West has bought more coaches for the fleet to provide more capacity at "all times of the day and night".

Stagecoach West's managing director Rachel Geliamassi said it was an exciting day for the Oxford Tube.

“The expansion of the Oxford Tube into High Wycombe makes travel into London and Oxford easier, more reliable, sustainable and great value for money," she said.

"Passengers love the space, air con, super comfy seats, tables and charging points,” she added.
